The DFRobot 360 degree rotary encoder module is based and designed on the EC11 rotary encoder button. The module has three signal terminals: terminals A & B are...

This is a Gear Motor w/Encoder, model No.GB37Y3530-12V-251R. It is a powerful 12V motor with a 43.8:1 metal gearbox and an integrated quadrature encoder that provides a resolution of 16 counts per revolution of the motor shaft, which corresponds to 700 counts per revolution of the gearbox’s output shaft.

This is a 12-step rotary encoder with a nice ‘clicking’ feel. It’s breadboard friendly, and has a pretty handy select switch (by pushing in on the knob). The encoder is different from a potentiometer in that an encoder has full rotation without limits. The unit outputs gray code so that you can tell how much and in which direction the encoder has been turned.

This rotary encoder is the best of the best, its a high quality 24-pulse encoder, with detents and a nice feel. It is panel mountable for placement in a box, or...

This 1024 pulse per rotation rotary encoder outputs gray code which you can interpret using a microcontroller and find out which direction the shaft is turning and by how much. This allows you to add feedback to motor control systems. Encoders of this kind are often used in balancing robots and dead reckoning navigation but it could also be used as a very precise input knob.

Rotary encoders can be used similarly to potentiometers. The difference being that an encoder has full rotation without limits (It just goes round and round). They...
